Garnaut sets the bar high on climate change

How long till the experts discover there is nothing that can stop the
sea level from rising by 67 meters

Will your children live

or die waiting for the experts to tell you the truth

NOTHING can stop the sea level rising by 67 meters or about 200 feet

NOTHING can now stop it

40% of all land WILL be under water

400 million refugees WILL soon start arriving in australia

Will your children live or die

Thats the only uncertainty

Professor Ross Garnaut has delivered an unexpectedly confronting
report on the challenges posed by global warming. It is a message that
the Government would do well to take seriously.

THERE is no doubt that global warming is the world's greatest crisis,
the real weapon of mass destruction against which a workable defence
strategy must be found, and found soon. It is on every agenda of every
major meeting of world leaders from G8 to APEC to the European
Commission. Indeed, EU President Jose Manuel Barroso last month
described the management of climate change as "the great project of
our generation".

No, your children will die once they reach 500,000 years old!

"Attributing global climate change to human CO2 production is akin to
trying to diagnose an automotive problem by ignoring the engine
(analogous to the Sun in the climate system) and the transmission (water
vapour) and instead focusing entirely, not on one nut on a rear wheel,
which would be analogous to total CO2, but on one thread on that nut,
which represents the human contribution." Dr. Timothy Ball, Chairman of

Raving smegging idiot. You were spouting this 67 metres of yours a
couple of years back. What exactly are you expecting, Noah's flood? It's
not going to happen that way, turkey.

January was warmest on record - Weather- msnbc.comSkip navigation


January was warmest on record worldwide
Scientists say El Niño, global warming are responsible for global

updated 8:29 a.m. PT, Fri., Feb. 16, 2007

WASHINGTON - It may be cold comfort during a frigid February, but last month
was
by far the hottest January on record across the globe.

The broken record was fueled by a waning El Niño and a gradually warming
world,
according to U.S. scientists who reported the data Thursday. Records on the
planet's temperature have been kept since 1880.

Spurred on by unusually warm Siberia, Canada, northern Asia and Europe, the
world's land areas were 3.4 degrees Fahrenheit warmer than a normal January,
according to the U.S. National Climatic Data Center in Asheville, N.C. That
didn't just nudge past the old record set in 2002, but broke that mark by
0.81
degrees, which meteorologists said is a lot, since such records often are
broken
by hundredths of a degree at a time.

"That's pretty unusual for a record to be broken by that much," said the
data
center's scientific services chief, David Easterling. "I was very
surprised."
The scientists went beyond their normal double-checking and took the unusual
step of running computer climate models "just to make sure that what we're
seeing was real," Easterling said.

It was.

Getting used to broken records

"From one standpoint it is not unusual to have a new record because we've
become
accustomed to having records broken," said Jay Lawrimore, climate monitoring
branch chief. But January, he said, was a bigger jump than the world has
seen in
about 10 years.

The temperature of the world's land and water combined - the most effective
measurement - was 1.53 degrees Fahrenheit warmer than normal, breaking the
old
record by more than one-quarter of a degree. Ocean temperatures alone didn't
set
a record.

In the Northern Hemisphere, land areas were 4.1 degrees Fahrenheit warmer
than
normal for January, breaking the old record by about three-quarters of a
degree.

But the United States was about normal. The nation was 0.94 degrees
Fahrenheit
above normal for January, ranking only the 49th warmest since 1895.

The world's temperature record was driven by northern latitudes. Siberia was
on
average 9 degrees Fahrenheit warmer than normal. Eastern Europe had
temperatures
averaging 8 degrees Fahrenheit above normal. Canada on average was more than
5
degrees warmer than normal.

Larger increases in temperature farther north, compared to mid-latitudes, is
"sort of the global warming signal," Easterling said. It is what climate
scientists predict happens and will happen more frequently with global
warming,
according to an authoritative report by hundreds of climate scientists
issued
this month.

Temps consistent with changing climate

Meteorologists aren't blaming the warmer January on global warming alone,
but
they said the higher temperature was consistent with climate change.
Easterling said a weakening El Niño - a warming of the central Pacific Ocean
that tends to cause changes in weather across the globe - was a factor, but
not
a big one.

But Kevin Trenberth, director of climate analysis at the National Center for
Atmospheric Research, said El Niño made big changes worldwide that added up.
Temperature records break regularly with global warming, Trenberth said, but
"with a little bit of El Niño thrown in, you don't just break records, you
smash
records."

As much of the United States already knows, February doesn't seem as
unusually
warm as January was.

"Even with global warming, you're not going to keep that cold air bottled up
in
Alaska and Canada forever," Easterling said.
